super easy, super tasty and a great foundation for all kinds of modifications.
A snap to put together any day of the week.
I used 1/3 c olive oil instead of the butter and whatever pasta I had in my pantry.
We all loved it. I think it could use an extra kick from red pepper flakes. Next time I may try adding some sun dried tomatoes, fresh cherry tomatoes, corn, cranberries, walnuts or a combination of the above.
Will definitively do it again.

My 17 year old daughter made this for supper one night and it was a hit! Her sister even loved it and she usually hates broccoli. She served it along with chicken drumsticks and used olive oil instead of butter, we try to eat more healthy in our house. It will be a definitive hit in our house for sure!

This was easy and tasty! Although I did decrease the butter, doubled the garlic and herbs and added some turkey meat (my husband doesn't usually respond well to pure vege meals). It will be one of our usual pastas!

I added more garlic and red pepper flakes; and cut down the butter by half. Still, a very good recipe. It obviously has good bones, as seen by the many people who added other things, but I like the simplicity and ease of this as written.

Four stars for a quick, satisfying flavorful meal. I used 4 cloves of garlic, generous ground pepper, and fresh thyme rather than basil and parsley, and it came out beautifully. Great little meal between studying for exams!

two cloves of garlic is for sissies. If you're going to stay at home, might as well throw in three or four, since the garlic seemed rather light for that quantity of pasta. A "ton" of salt is not necessary with the simple addition of our kindly friend, fresh lemon (juice). I boiled the broccoli before the pasta and removed with slotted spoon, then added pasta to the brocoli water separately so the broccoli could be drained more easily. Nothing goes better with garlic and basil than olive oil. Opting for healthier fats, I decreased the butter and added more olive oil.
Extra points to this recipe for the EASE in making it., as well as helping us incorporate brocoli: "the king of vegetables" (for its vitamins) into our diet.
